> My sister is a DA so I hear the other side of this. Police are people and they can get scared, angry, and make mistakes. Except unlike people in other professions, when police get scared, angry, and make mistakes, other people die. In other sectors, where courts, politicians and the public haven't been brain-washed by the never-ending chorus of 'officer safety', people with that kind of power are held to a commensurate level of accountability. That's the central issue, which you're attempting to side-step. > Deaths at the hands of police are always horrible but an important message that is not broadcast clearly enough in every community is... NEVER RESIST ARREST! Aside from a clear victim-blaming bias, even casual observation rules this out as a panacea. Far from it.
